The Lone Ranger

Saw The Lone Ranger. As with John Carter, a lot of critics and fans seem to actively WANT this movie to fail. I’ll say this: the movie is too long, as are most movies these days. I think it could have been 30 mins shorter. But it had humor, action and the final sequence is one of the greatest action scenes ever put on film. My six year old said he loved it. The scene that The Huffington Post warned parents about is not that bad – Julian was totally unfazed by it. It has some fun shout-outs to classic Ranger lore. I would love to see a sequel but we’ll have to see if this one makes enough to warrant one. The theatre I was in was about 2/3 full. I give it a 7 out of 10.
